Granada form and stats

The hunting on away grounds haven’t been very fruitful for Granada so far with only 6 points returning home. The records show 1-3-8 (win-draw-lose). Travelling has not been lucrative for the away team as they have returned home without a win in eleven away games in a row.

The Granada goalkeeper Raul Fernandez-Cavada Mateos is collecting clean sheets like a laundry worker. It's been 195 league minutes without conceding a goal, and counting.

Granada are travelling after their nice 2-0 home win in the game against FC Andorra (placed 11th). Attacker Uzuni got a player rating of 8.45 in the game. "Man of the match" Uzuni scored two goals, hit one key pass and dribled past the opponent 1 of 2 times.

That result followed a home victory 2-0 versus UD Ibiza.

Low-scoring game? 12 of this side's most recent 15 league rounds have seen zero, one or two goals.

Granada are seemingly not capable of scoring regularly on their travels in the league. They have only managed {4 goals} from 12 away games. It's worth mentioning that 2 of these goals has been scored in their last three away matches. As opposed to that, Granada have seen the ball go into their own net 16 times on the road.
